About 2 days ago, I transplanted two clones that were about 1.5 weeks old and I'm having some problems! (I think). This is my first grow so I dont' know if this is normal or not. I didn't soak the pot in water, but I watered them pretty decently I thought. It's still a little moist and cool an inch deep, so I think it's okay with water for probably another day. I could be wrong though, because the top is pretty much all dry. There was about 5-10% runoff I would say.

The leaves are curling pretty badly and they are yellowish, too. I'm using FF Ocean Forest and have about 250w of CFLs right now. Has been getting a 20/4 light cycle.

Please help me! These plants are Purple Kush and Sour Bubble. These clones are the most excellent plants I've ever seen when finished. Seriously, they are have some unbelievable genetics and I would hate to screw this up.

if they get real droopy= too much water.

They for certain took some shock and should recover eventually, you may not notice much or any growth for a week or so while they take to the new soil. I would foliar spray them as well it really helps clones and seedlings, just mist them a couple times a day.

Transplant shock is normal. drooping leaves are a sign of shock and or water problems. You, the grower know which is which. If the soil is too wet, let her dry a bit.

Don't panic and do anything. Weedez has a good idea regarding a weak foliar feeding/misting of leaves. Those plants need food, they are too pale. You can add SuperThrive or a B1 vitamin with hormones to aid the plants in recovery. The stuff is like $10 at Walmart and only a few drops per gallon does wonders.

Good luck!! :)

Thank for the help! I'm learning more and more everyday. I bought some Magic Green foliar spray and I also bout a small bottle of SuperThrive. Unfortuantely, I have to wait a few days to use the ST bc I just watered today before I learned I needed it. BUT the foliar spray will be used tmrw right after I give my babies some darkness. Looking forward to seeing if this helps!

sounds good, you can foliar spray during the whole veg cycle if you wish, it definitely aids in healthy plant growth, but it also prevents nasty pests like spider mites from making a home on your plants.

Give us a updated pic in a week or so, id like to see how they are doing.
